I saw it on the reader board in the parking lot.....and Riley mentioned wanting to go....but after reading this I am super excited to attend! Math night needed a facelift and you have done a great job at turning this around and making it interesting. The whole Chatterson family will be attending!! Camelot is lucky to have such an innovative teacher!gchatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06909597256575984459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1358920458033520499.post-20560051584249926532012-11-08T21:14:46.891-08:002012-11-08T21:14:46.891-08:00Thanks very much.

Congratulations on this new tradition! I also really like the reflection piece afterwards to bring in the &quot;T&quot; element.<br /><br />Congrats on bringing this together on such a busy week!<br /><br />pottsedtechhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02437586192168970444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1358920458033520499.post-36338575921936861522012-11-08T15:08:55.492-08:002012-11-08T15:08:55.492-08:00Hi Cheryl: Just went to my first this month, sinc...Hi Cheryl: Just went to my first this month, since I&#39;m now STEM instead of &quot;computers&quot;. There are 3 teachers who do this, it got started a number of years ago after they attended a workshop about doing this, probably at Rutgers, our state U. There was a good crowd, I would say about 20 families, and they were really into it. We did 4 activities: static electricity, acids &amp; bases, engineering a piece of copy paper to hold up weight, and making a noisemaker with a plastic cup and string, that sounded like a chicken! I&#39;m @davezirk on Twitter, that&#39;s a good way to reach me.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10846620993152259555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1358920458033520499.post-49468643105678235822012-11-08T11:45:25.613-08:002012-11-08T11:45:25.613-08:00Thanks, Dave!

Who is responsible for putting it on each month? Sounds like a great learning opportunity for kids!Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03294154028215678428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1358920458033520499.post-869393276450667502012-11-08T08:04:37.304-08:002012-11-08T08:04:37.304-08:00Terrific post, thanks!!
